We all know the advantages of BTC, but what are some of the disadvantages??

Vulnerability to a great number of online predators and threats like hackers viruses and phishing sites plus a lot of uncontrolled factors like file corruption and losing of wallet accessibility data and not to mention the internet quality also affects it which is a big issue in our country who have slow and expensive internet service providers. So primarily bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies advantages of being able to be used by anyone anywhere is also what gives it risks.

If we talk solely about bitcoin their are plenty of disadvantages about it.
One thing that I can share is anonymity which can be used by many people that intended to do bad like they can use bitcoin to commit crime, steal others money by hacking and many more.

We all know that the bitcoins have also many disadvantages. One of the disadvantages is the high transactions fee, many people like me are pissed off because of the high transactions fee.

One thing that ticks me off about BTC is the transaction speed. Takes a lot of time though depending on how much you pay for the transaction speed. Other thing is that it can be easily stolen and your BTC can pop off along with where you store it when that site goes down.

the weakness of bitcoin in my opinion is not yet able to be used by every country, including in my country bitcoin not yet legal, only certain country that legalize bitcoin, and time of its slow confirmation if in use for payment.

We all know the advantage of the bitcoins is through its value. Bitcoin has a very high value if we excahnge this into fiat money. However it has also a disadvantage which is nowadays not all people know its existence. I think that is one of the disadvantage of bitcoins.

Bitcoin has not been fully used as a transaction tool, it still needs refinement. Especially if living in a country that has not legalized bitcoin, tastes like vegetables without salt, high value but can not be used in my own country except with online purchases.

For me the disadvantage of bitcoin to be honest it's hard to know or predict the value of bitcoin so the disadvantage is if you buy a bitcoin and the price of bitcoin became decrease and if youdont have a patience i think you'll become loss just for my opinion.

The most annoying disadvantage is that we have to wait for a pretty long time to get confirmations on transaction.

The disadvantage of bitcoin for me is we can't use it offline, and some store don't accept bitcoin. The price also is easily move and hoping that always increase.

1. Increasingly higher transaction fees.
2. Increasingly higher transaction confirmation times.
3. Cannot get back if you send to wrong address.
4. Can easily get scammed due to above mentioned reason.
5. Very hard for noobs to learn about and figure out how to buy it in their country.

There are more, but these are the first that come to my mind.

Base on my searching on the internet it is because Lack of Awareness & Understanding because the fact is many people are still unaware of digital currencies and Bitcoin. And p
eople need to be educated about Bitcoin to be able to apply it to their lives.

disadvantage of Bitcoin is that it is very volatile and price of bitcoin keeps changing very fast and sharply which is not the case with other currencies which are very stable. And there is a limited amount of coins and the demand for them increases by each passing day.
